Die DE 41 16 218 A1 beschreibt eine Vorrichtung zur lösbaren Befestigung eines elektrischen Einbaugerätes, wie einer Steckdose, einem Schalter, einem Taster, einem Lichtzeichen, einem Dimmer oder dergleichen in einer Einbauöffnung in einer Gerätewand.The DE 41 16 218 A1 describes a device for releasably securing a built-in electrical appliance, such as a socket, a switch, a button, a light, a dimmer or the like in a mounting hole in a device wall.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein neues Anschlusssystem der eingangs erwähnten Art für elektronische Stromzähler zu schaffen, das den für solche elektronische Stromzähler stellenden Anforderungen gerecht wird.The present invention has for its object to provide a new connection system of the type mentioned for electronic electricity meter that meets the requirements for such electronic electricity meter requirements.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved by the features specified in claim 1.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist ein Anschlusssystem für Stromzähler derart modular aufgebaut, dass der Anschluss des Stromzählers an die Plattform über eine gesonderte Baugruppe erfolgt. Wenn gemäß einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung die Basisplattform mehrere Sitze für die Aufnahme einer solchen Aufnahmebaugruppe aufweist, brauchen bei Nichtnutzung von Sitzen nicht alle Ankopplungselemente vorhanden zu sein. Erst bei einer Nachrüstung werden diese Elemente ergänzt.According to the invention, a connection system for electricity meters is modular in such a way that the connection of the electricity meter to the platform takes place via a separate assembly. If according to one embodiment of the invention, the base platform has several seats for receiving such a receiving assembly, not all coupling elements need to be present when not using seats. Only with a retrofit these elements are supplemented.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist die Aufnahmebaugruppe sowohl von der Rückseite als auch der Vorderseite der Basisplattform her an der Basisplattform montierbar. Zweckmäßig ist eine einrastende Steckverbindung vorgesehen, die eine schnelle Montage ohne Werkzeug ermöglicht.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the receiving assembly can be mounted on the base platform both from the rear side and from the front side of the base platform. Appropriately, a latching connector is provided which allows quick installation without tools.

Die Möglichkeit zur Montage der Aufnahmebaugruppe von der Rückseite der Plattform her ist für die Produktion vorteilhaft, insbesondere dann, wenn gemäß einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung die Aufnahmebaugruppe mit in Anschlussräume zu führenden Anschlussleitern vorgefertigt ist. Die hinter der Basisplattform verlegten Anschlussleiter brauchen dann nicht eingefädelt zu werden. Die Montagemöglichkeit von der Vorderseite her erleichtert Nachrüstungen von Zählern und Aufnahmebaugruppen wie auch den Austausch von Zählern, z.B. zur Umstellung auf einen höheren Grenzstrom.The possibility of mounting the receiving assembly from the back of the platform forth is advantageous for the production, especially if, according to an embodiment of the invention, the receiving assembly is prefabricated with terminal leads leading to connection spaces. The connection conductors laid behind the base platform then do not need to be threaded. The possibility of mounting from the front facilitates retrofits of counters and receiving assemblies as well as the replacement of counters, e.g. for conversion to a higher limiting current.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann es sich bei den Anschlussleitern um wenigstens teilweise starre, der Anschlussgeometrie entsprechend vorgeformte Leiter handeln. Letztere lassen sich nur montieren, wenn auch die Montagemöglichkeit von der Rückseite der Basisplattform her gegeben ist.In a further embodiment of the invention, the connection conductors may be at least partially rigid, and the connection geometry may be correspondingly preformed conductors. The latter can only be mounted if the mounting option is also available from the back of the base platform.

Die mit der Aufnahmebaugruppe vorgefertigten starren Leiter können mit einer Klemmleiste, insbesondere einer Hauptleitungsabzweigklemme verbunden sein, wobei die Klemmleiste entweder an die Basisplattform oder/und eine Hutprofilschiene in einem Anschlussraum koppelbar sein kann.The prefabricated with the receiving assembly rigid conductor may be connected to a terminal block, in particular a main line branch terminal, wherein the terminal block can be coupled either to the base platform and / or a DIN rail in a terminal compartment.

Die starren Anschlussleiter können ferner ein mit einem weiteren Anschlussleiter verbindbares Kontaktstück der genannten Klemmleiste bilden, was die Konstruktion der Klemmleiste vorteilhaft vereinfacht.The rigid connection conductors can furthermore form a contact piece, which can be connected to a further connection conductor, of said terminal strip, which advantageously simplifies the construction of the terminal strip.

Die starren Leiter können unmittelbar in Kontakt mit einem Kontaktstück des Stromzählers stehen. Gesonderte Anschlusskontaktstücke für die Anschlussleiter an der Aufnahmebaugruppe sind dann überflüssig.The rigid conductors may be in direct contact with a contact piece of the electricity meter. Separate connection contact pieces for the connection conductors on the receiving module are then superfluous.

Die Aufnahmebaugruppe lässt sich sowohl mit nach oben als auch nach unten von der Baugruppe wegführenden Leitern vorfertigen.The receptacle can be prefabricated with both up and down leading away from the module ladders.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist ein Nullleiter ununterbrochen durch die Aufnahmebaugruppe hindurch verlegt und innerhalb der Aufnahmebaugruppe, ggf. durch eine Messerkontaktierung, angeschlossen. Auch hierbei kann es sich um einen wenigstens teilweise starren Leiter handeln, der unmittelbar in Kontakt mit einem Kontaktstück des Zählers kommt. Gesonderte Anschlusselemente entfallen.In a further embodiment of the invention, a neutral conductor is laid continuously through the receptacle assembly and connected within the receptacle assembly, possibly by a Messererkontaktierung. Again, it may be an at least partially rigid conductor, which comes directly into contact with a contact piece of the counter. Separate connection elements omitted.

Der wenigstens teilweise starre Nullleiter kann einen ggf. verformten Abschnitt aufweisen, mit dem er federnd gegen das Kontaktstück des Stromzählers anliegt.The at least partially rigid neutral conductor may have a possibly deformed portion, with which it bears resiliently against the contact piece of the electricity meter.

In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind Einrichtungen zur Sicherung der Aufnahmebaugruppe in ihrer Montagestellung auf der Basisplattform vorgesehen. Eine solche Sicherung kann durch einen Teil des Stromzählers, z.B. ein Verhakungselement, gebildet sein. Ein die Steckverbindung bildendes Element umfasst zweckmäßig Einrichtungen zur Demontage der Aufnahmebaugruppe, wobei das Element zweckmäßig durch den in seiner Betriebsstellung plombierten Stromzähler versperrt und daher nicht zugänglich ist.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, means for securing the receiving assembly are provided in their mounting position on the base platform. Such a fuse may be provided by a part of the electricity meter, e.g. a Verhakungselement be formed. A plug-in connection forming element expediently comprises means for disassembling the receiving assembly, wherein the element expediently blocked by the sealed in its operating position power meter and therefore is not accessible.

Auch ein die Rastverbindung bildendes Element kann Einrichtungen zur Lösung der Rastverbindung aufweisen.Also, a latching connection forming element may have means for solving the latching connection.

Eine in Fig. 1 gezeigte Zählerschrankinstallation weist einen ein Anschlusssystem für Stromzähler enthaltenden Abschnitt 1 sowie einen unteren und oberen Anschlussraum bildende Abschnitte 2 und 3 auf.An in Fig. 1 shown meter cabinet installation has a connection system for electricity meter containing section 1 and a lower and upper terminal space forming sections 2 and 3.

In dem Abschnitt 1 bestehen in dem betrachteten Fall Anschlussmöglichkeiten für zwei Stromzähler 4 und 5.In section 1, there are connection possibilities for two electricity meters 4 and 5 in the considered case.

Aus der dem Schnitt A-A von Fig. 1 entsprechenden Darstellung von Fig. 2 ist erkennbar, dass der Stromzähler 4 mit einer Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 verbindbar ist, die ihrerseits mit einer Basisplattform 7 verbunden werden kann.From the section AA of Fig. 1 corresponding representation of Fig. 2 It can be seen that the electricity meter 4 can be connected to a receiving assembly 6, which in turn can be connected to a base platform 7.

Während der Stromzähler 4 über von seiner Rückseite vorstehende Kontaktstücke 8 elektrisch und über Hakenelemente 9 mechanisch mit der Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 verbunden werden kann, ist die Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 auf die Basisplattform 7 aufsteckbar, wobei hinterschnittene Rastnasen 10 an der Basisplattform einrasten und Verlängerungen 20 der Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 in Randeinsenkungen 21 der Basisplattform eingreifen.While the power meter 4 can be electrically connected via its rear projecting contacts 8 and hook elements 9 mechanically with the receiving module 6, the receiving module 6 can be plugged onto the base platform 7, wherein undercut locking lugs 10 engage the base platform and extensions 20 of the receiving module 6 in Edge subsidence 21 of the base platform intervene.

Zur elektrischen und mechanischen Verbindung mit der Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 ist der Zähler 4 parallel zur Basisplattform zu verschieben, wobei die Kontaktstücke 8 in elektrischen Kontakt mit innerhalb der Aufnahmebaugruppe vorgesehenen Anschlusselementen kommen und die Hakenelemente 9 Teile des Gehäuses der Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 hintergreifen, so dass der Zähler in Richtung senkrecht zur Basisplattform nicht mehr von der Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 abhebbar ist.For electrical and mechanical connection with the receiving module 6, the counter 4 is to be moved parallel to the base platform, wherein the contact pieces 8 come into electrical contact with provided within the receiving assembly connection elements and the hook elements 9 engage behind parts of the housing of the receiving module 6, so that the counter in Direction perpendicular to the base platform is no longer lifted from the receiving module 6.

Die Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 ist komplett vorgefertigt mit hinter der Basisplattform 7 zu verlegenden, flexiblen Anschlussleitern 11 und 12, wobei die Anschlussleiter 11 in den oberen Anschlussraum und die Leiter 12 in den unteren Anschlussraum zu führen sind.The receiving module 6 is completely prefabricated with behind the base platform 7 to be laid, flexible connecting conductors 11 and 12, wherein the connecting conductors 11 are to be guided in the upper terminal space and the conductors 12 in the lower terminal compartment.

Für den Anschluss des Zählers 5 ist ein dem Anschlusssystem von Fig. 2 entsprechendes System vorgesehen.For the connection of the counter 5 is the connection system of Fig. 2 appropriate system provided.

Wie aus Fig. 3 hervorgeht, weist die Basisplattform 7 ein plattenartiges Teil 13 auf, das über Schwachstellen 14 mit der übrigen Basisplattform verbunden und zur Bildung eines Sitzes für den Zähler 4 bzw. 5 aus der Basisplattform 7 ausbrechbar ist. In dem Teil 13 vorgesehene Räume 15 dienen einerseits der Meidung von Materialhäufungen und können andererseits vor Installation eines Stromzählers zur Unterbringung von Teilen, ggf. Verbindungselementen und dergleichen, genutzt werden.How out Fig. 3 As can be seen, the base platform 7 has a plate-like part 13 which is connected via weak points 14 to the rest of the base platform and can be broken out of the base platform 7 to form a seat for the counter 4 or 5. On the one hand, spaces 15 provided in the part 13 are used to avoid the accumulation of material and, on the other hand, can be used before the installation of a power meter for accommodating parts, possibly connecting elements and the like.

Aus Fig. 4 gehen in Fig. 2 und 3 nicht sichtbare Details hervor. An wenigstens einer der Rastnasen 10 ist ein Durchgang 16 für die Aufnahme eines Sicherungsstifts 17 gebildet, welcher verhindert, dass sich die Rastnasen verbiegen und sich die Aufnahmebaugruppe auf ihrer eingerasteten Steckverbindung mit der Basisplattform 7 lösen kann. Wie Fig. 2a erkennen lässt, ist dieser Sicherungsstift 17 durch den in seiner Betriebslage zu plombierenden Zähler 4 abgedeckt und daher nicht zugänglich. Zur Demontage der Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 von der Basisplattform 7 kann ein einen Teil des Durchgangs 16 bildender Ansatz 18 an der Rastnase 10 dazu verwendet werden, die Rastnase aus ihrer Verhakungsstellung mit der Basisplattform 7 zu lösen, indem z.B. in den betreffenden Abschnitt des Durchgangs 16 ein Werkzeug eingeführt wird. Eine gestufte Ausnehmung 22 am Sicherungsstift kann zum Herausziehen des Stifts aus dem Durchgang 16 genutzt werden.Out Fig. 4 go in Fig. 2 and 3 not visible details. On at least one of the locking lugs 10, a passage 16 for receiving a locking pin 17 is formed, which prevents the locking lugs bend and the receiving assembly can solve on its latched connector with the base platform 7. As Fig. 2a can be seen, this locking pin 17 is covered by the counter 4 to be sealed in its operating position and therefore not accessible. For disassembly of the receiving assembly 6 of the base platform 7, a part of the passage 16 forming approach 18 can be used on the locking lug 10 to release the latch from its Verhakungsstellung with the base platform 7, for example, in the relevant section of the passage 16 a tool is introduced. A stepped recess 22 on the locking pin can be used to pull the pin out of the passage 16.

Es wird nun auf Fig. 5 Bezug genommen, wo gleiche oder gleichwirkende Teile mit derselben Bezugszahl wie in Fig. 2 und 3 bezeichnet sind, wobei der betreffenden Bezugszahl der Buchstabe a beigefügt ist.It will be up now Fig. 5 Reference is made to the same or equivalent parts with the same reference number as in Fig. 2 and 3 the relevant reference number is accompanied by (a).

Eine kastenartige Aufnahmebaugruppe 6a weist mehrere Paare vorstehender Rastnasen 10a und 10a' auf, die in Ausnehmungen 19 in einer Abwinklung an einer Basisplattform 7a eingreifen. Wie Fig. 5 erkennen lässt, weisen die Rastnasen in entgegengesetzten Richtungen geneigte Schrägen auf, so dass die Aufnahmebaugruppe 6 sowohl von der Vorderseite der Plattform 7a her als auch von deren Rückseite aus auf die Basisplattform aufsteckbar sind.A box-like receiving assembly 6a has a plurality of pairs of protruding locking lugs 10a and 10a ', which engage in recesses 19 in an angling on a base platform 7a. As Fig. 5 can recognize, the locking lugs in opposite directions inclined slopes, so that the receiving assembly 6 can be plugged both from the front of the platform 7a forth as well as from the back of the base platform.
